When aggregated groups purchase large blocks of energy, they can benefit by negotiating discounted prices. In the last three years, buildings that participated in the program have saved $9,054,128 in electricity and $5,492,908 in natural gas costs – up to 13% less than rates charged by Con Edison and National Grid.

Fast Facts About the FS Energy Aggregation Purchasing Program

Properties that are part of an aggregated group remain customers of their natural gas or electric utility company.

Each building is quoted its own price based on its load profile while also benefitting from reduced supplier margins and other expenses.

How Procurement Works

Energy prices fluctuate constantly, which can significantly affect your property’s energy bill and performance against budget. By taking a proactive approach to buying energy, you can better control your costs.

FS Energy specializes in purchasing energy on behalf of properties managed by FirstService Residential. We can lead you to strategic energy procurement that ensures you’re getting the best value for your energy dollar. We identify strategic sourcing opportunities by constantly monitoring market dynamics to identify the best possible purchase opportunities.

Our Process

FS Energy will review your past energy invoices to identify current energy purchasing options and issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) to purchase energy for one of three reasons:

Market dynamics present an opportunity

Regulatory or supplier entrances/exits change options

Upcoming contract expirations require action

After your property indicates a willingness to participate in an RFP, FS Energy will send the energy load to the supplier community. Our energy experts review all responses and recommend the best option based on key factors like pricing, contract terms, product structures and credit conditions. When you approve a recommendation, FS Energy handles the transactional process and completes all legal documentation.
